Water Flows
Over old stones

Not today Harvey
Nor for some time
To come

It’s October now
My favorite month
With little patience
For argument
As to who or what
Was wrong

So if I say
The moon was hers
The stars
Her faithful cavaliers
There’ll be no objections
To my words

I decree
She was beautiful

Here and there
A leaf or two
Under an iron bridge

"Not today Harvey"

that is not your most lovely line, but will likely be the one I steal to become part of my lingo.

a leaf or two

you made me smile yanno

This is my favorite poem of yours so far.
I can see you sitting on the edge of the creek as the waters flow by. Thoughts race and wander.

Nice.

The answer is always NO, Until the question is asked.
